It was handled badly. That cannot be disputed.
Harvey has put it behind him clearly. Good on him.

HH3, Dutchy and Spargo will dispute that, it's all the media people, the masses of North fans and everyone who thought it was a cock up who are wrong though. ;)

What about the non North fans who thought they handled it fine but don't care enough to go on and on about it? That's the category I and most I know fall into.

Harvey stays at the Roos yet Sam Mitchell and Jordan Lewis don't stay at the Hawks, after all is said and done I know who handled it the best with respect for their players.

Good logo but I'm not sure which part of Melbourne they're from, they need to highlight that more.

Just in case you didn't know, North are never beaten. It's written on their logo.

Seriously what is with clubs having to re-iterate that message in their marketing and or logo's. Actions speak far louder than words ever will and all clubs have stages in their history where they are absolutely shithouse and where they are doing well on and off the field. Stop the never giving up shit anyone who has played footy knows how it ebs and flows.

No arguments here on that. That title ebs and flows depending on who is winning. Probably need to win a final or 2 before we sprout that out too.
